On September 28, 2017, NYMU-iGEM team headed to Taipei First High Girls’ School in order to promote the iGEM competition in high schools. The Biology club in Taipei First High School (TFGBC) is composed of students who are interested in the biology field. After contacting with TFGBC several times, we decided to hold a seminar in Taipei First High School. We not only introduced synthetic biology, the iGEM Giant Jamboree, other iGEM teams’ works, and iGEM high school tract, but also briefly talked about our project -Smart AlgaEnergy. To advocate the IGEM competition was the main purpose of this seminar. We hoped it could stimulate their passion on synthetic biology, maybe even resulting in them becoming iGEMers in the future! After our presentation, both NYMU-iGEM team and TFGBC wanted to have further academic exchanges in the future, such as lab visits, student practices…etc.
